Does Pimmy work in W95 on a 486/33?

Does Pimmy work in W95 on a 486/33?

Yes but with Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher installed. We don't use IE in
any way but we use some Windows components (common controls) updated by
IE4. Please refer to this page for more details on software and hardware
requirements:

Thanks.
This machine has IE 3.0 already installed, I see comments for
international character coding. I will use English default, will Pimmy
work OK with IE 3 under these conditions?

IE3 does not install proper version of Windows Common Controls (such as
toolbar and list view) but I think you can simply try to install Pimmy and
run the program. I have no way to try, I'm sorry. If you try please send a
support message to me via menu "Help / Write to the authors" (it contains
technical info about your system as you'll see). So I can better understand
if and why Pimmy runs.

You will not be able to view email with different international character
encoding or better you could have some problems with some letters. No
problem with english and european charset (like this message) if special
chars (e grave, euro symbol) are not used. If used you will see nothing or
a different symbol. Not so dangerous in most of cases.

There is a separate downloadable Common Controls update for Windows
95/98/NT 4 that can be downloaded from the Microsoft web site. It will
take you up to version 5.80. You don't need to have any version of IE
installed to use it.

That should be enough for the original poster to get Pimmy working
under any Windows 9x machine they need.

I agree! Pimmy just keeps getting better and better. Props to Antonio and
Angelo for making such a great program and being so responsive to user
feedback. They're definitely one of the best teams around.
